What do you do when something you know is bad for you is com
Question Posted Thursday August 3 2006, 12:37 am
So there is this boy that I had liked big time my freshman year. He was the typical bad boy, smoked, drank, had sex with any girl he could...that kind of thing. But he was really sweet to me and I fell for him hard. Then, of course, he broke my heart. So I didnt really talk to him for a long time. He moved to mexico and I didnt see him till my 17th birthday. He took me out to a movie and treated me like a princess. He opened doors for me, bought my ticket, all that jazz. I felt bad the whole time because I just couldn't let my guard down, I just couldn't trust him again. I am pretty sure he was expecting something out of the day but I just wasn't interested anymore. That was back in March. Now here I am in August and for the last three days I have talked to him every night for like 3 hours. I can't help but flirt with him and make plans with him. I can't stop thinking about him.......but here is my problem. Things can't go anywhere if I am talking to him online and he is in mexico, right? but he is moving back to California in like a week and I cant help but want to see him. My parents dont approve of him so i cant tell them i want to go see him so i told them i want to go visit the college that is in the town he is moving to.....Should I go back and give the guy another chance (since he didn't break my heart on purpous) and lie to my parents to see him? Or just let things go and if he wants to see me let him come to me?

So if you go down there visit the college and have him go with you and check it out together, I doubt your parents are gonna trip off of you two looking at a college together. It might make your parents think a little different of him if hes looking at a college to go to.
But if you go down there he knows how you feel about him cuz your going out of your way to see him, and then he has the upperhand on the situation; savvy? Considering what you told me about what he used to be like and how he broke your heart, you probably want to have the upperhand and control of this situation.
So let him come up and visit you, he'll come to visit anyways cuz he'll probably want to visit his other friends in the area so you making all that extra effort to go see him probably isnt necessary. Like you said, you dont want to let your gaurd down; so dont. let him come to you, let him make the moves, let him work. I hope all that made sense and everything works out for you. good luck.
